Halo
Jahmene Douglas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But, I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo...
Halo, ooh ooh...
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget to pull me back to the ground again
And It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I'm never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
I pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo...
Halo, ooh ooh...
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo...
Halo, ooh ooh...
Halo, ooh ooh...
Halo, ooh ooh, oh...
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo...
Halo, ooh oh...
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo...
Halo, ooh oh...
The lyrics of Jahméne Douglas's song, "Halo," speak to the power of a relationship and the transformative impact that a loved one can have on one's life.

God made up to give you the gift of voice and messages to spread. I’m Catholic and I can’t stop playing your albums. It’s your voice and your conviction to God. Ive always loved gospel singing. But I never could go to what my mother considered devil”s work and black peoples.You sing from your hearts. I snuck around and sat on the rock till someone saw me and took me inside. My mother would have a fit and call me devil’s child. I would get bored, because the Catholics follows a script, not the bible. It’s the same thing every Sunday. Mother dressed us like a picture in a catalog. Now I go to a nondescript church.i am singing in the choir. I’m loving it. I don’t have to hide. My daughter and my grandkids love the church. I told them to feel God and tell him, things get better. Thank you for God and you. I start by listening to your music before I go to work or troubled.

Respect
@skinswillwinbowl
Jahmene is the best true SINGER out there. He can sing anything!!! Great job young man. I am a huge huge fan.
@fanfam
And he did not win the x factor??! Just saw some auditions never watched it on tv. But when this men came along i knew this man would make world class singers men or women jealous. Loved the final where nicole droped the microphone because it was ''broken'' she had to find a way to hold him back and not go off, even as a women singer she has to say he is matching her vocals or even surpassed her. Respect this man for being still normal and not get eaten away by the fame. Hope he gets in the same famous level like Freddie mercury or Bruno Mars. Keep on going Jahmene Douglas and stop giggling.
@carmendickerson2906
+fanfam Yeah and he looks so pissed at the end. She didnt even try to share the mike with him, and he shared when it was his turn. She knew he was going to outshine her and she couldnt have that.
